Here is a list of changes and improvements implemented in Relecura over the last couple of months:

– Stemming disabled for proper nouns:

Stemming has been disabled for proper nouns. This gives you greater control over your search strings and will result in enhanced precision. Wildcards can be used to ensure that all the variations of a word are searched for.

– Proximity query:

Search queries can be simplified using nested proximity. You can now create complex search queries fairly quickly. Read our blog post on Proximity searching for more details.

– Refined highlighting in claims/description:

With refined highlighting, conveniently analyze the description and claims of patent documents.

– Search for normalized assignee:

Conveniently search for the variations denoted by the Normalized Company names e.g. IBM as IBM Corp, International Business Machines, International Business Machines Corp, M/S International Business Machines etc.

– Performance improvement:

Various changes to our back end infrastructure have resulted in a significant improvement in Relecura’s performance (for example, you can now export 60k document in under 10 minutes).

– Relecura Premier:

We have introduced Relecura Premier targeted at users focused solely on patent search. It has all of the features of Relecura Professional except the Patent Assignment Search.
